more trains and play time

Every Monday morning is spent cleaning the house. Since this Monday is the last cleaning day until Santa arrives, we decided it needed to be extra sparkly. Tyler was all about it helping out where he could by dusting anything he could reach. Around 9:45 I finally told him we were going to take a break and since he was an extra big help today we were going to have a special adventure. We drove to the Hershey Historical Museum to see the holiday train exhibit. He was so excited and said "this is making me really happy" and jumped up and down. And the entire way there he kept saying "this is a special adventure Mommy, I can't wait." Very sweet.
Tyler loved pushing all the little buttons. I couldn't believe how extensive the display was and was thrilled we came. Matty was good and kept walking over to the corner where there were stairs and he played there for a long. I will say it's much, much easier to go to things like this with Daddy along. For all sorts of reasons, I was missing Daddy today!
When we returned home, it was time for more fort playing. Ty kept crawling inside and then come out with so much static. I kept laughing and so he kept doing it. We definitely got the case of the giggles.
I went into the kitchen for something and returned to see this happening. I LOVE when I actually catch the boys playing together on their own without me instigating it. I hope I see more and more of this in the future!
